Haven't watched it but hey, it seems like the FCC has pretty much let TV go unsensored of late so why not. It might be dirty but compared to the other filth and trash like H311 On Wheels, Breaking Bad, Honey Boo Boo, Jersey Shore etc etc. It is entertaining listening to Nugent belch out the first name of the POTUS. Although I believe he will bet re-elected (not by my vote) the G-Men will soon begin to poke Uncle Teddy at every chance.

All right. Who is going to be the first one to post pictures of one?

In 6A you can expect a big variation in weather patterns and snow and muddy roads can exist.The Ceder Flats east of Camp Verde and north of Clear Creek will hold a few.

I have used 22-250 to take mulie Does so as WT are a bit smaller just don't use varmint type bullets and your OK probably out to 300 yards. I used Trophy Bonded BearClaws. Take a look at some of the recently posted pictures in the bowhunting section and you'll get a feel for the size of some of the deer.

Ouch!

New and Improved CouesWhitetail.com website coming soon!
PRDATR replied to CouesWhitetail's topic in The Campfire
Looking forward to it. -
Amanda, Since yesterday I get a screen with a Fatal Error when I attempt to access the Forums. The first time I happened around 4pm and although I repeatedly tried to get on it wasn't letting me. Getting around on the Homepage and other topics was not effected. I also had it happen a few times this morning and trying to post topics and reply to topics is hanging up. When I hit the post button it works but the window does not close afterward so it appears that the reply was not posted. I hope the site did not get hit with a virus.

Looks like they still have some antler growth going on. How long before they are hard horned?

It's choices like that which ultimately define us as Sportsman.

PHX Valley hunters: where to you hang your meat?
PRDATR replied to Airbusdriver's topic in The Campfire
The website has been having issues since yesterday afternoon. I noticed it about 4pm and it is still doing it. -
PHX Valley hunters: where to you hang your meat?
PRDATR replied to Airbusdriver's topic in The Campfire
Cattle have fat marbled through the meat so ageing it works. Deer on the other hand have no fat so ageing it does nothing for it. The University of Wyoming did a case study on game and the results are on their website. It was a pain to find the first time I did so a few years ago but if I have some free time I'll look for it. There was a lot of eye opening information in the paper. It is under their public infor section and is a PDF. It also goes into testing the meat for tenderness using some sort of needle like gauge which is pushed into the meat. Evidentially this is one way beef is rated, Choice, Prime etc. They also found that by leaving the hide on in cooler weather kept bacteria from growing on the flesh as opposed to removing it right away and then transporting it to be processed. -
Best place to hunt in Unit 22 or 23? Give suggestions.
PRDATR replied to Rifle2Bow's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
Rifle2Bow, I tried to google the name of the rim but obviously came up with the wrong name. About 2 1/2 to 3 miles north of Pleasent Valley Airport is good (Tanks) as is the southern part of the Colcord Rd. Lots of Junipers, some pines and a few deep washes and smaller canyons to checkout as well. -

PRDATR replied to Rifle2Bow's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
Welcome to the site. The area just below the Magellan Rim north of Young will give you the opportunity to arrow a Coues or Mule Deer since they are both in there along with Turkey, Elk and Bear. It wouldn't hurt to have a lion tag in your pocket either. -
I think we have beat this horse enough that Amanda should lock this down.

Cousins receive 48 hours jail for starting Wallow fire
PRDATR replied to Red Rabbit's topic in The Campfire
"A restitution hearing is set for Oct. 15. The jail time can be served on a weekend, but must be served before the restitution hearing, said U.S. Magistrate Mark Aspey. The Malboeufs have agreed to surrender on Aug. 31 to serve their 48 hour sentence. Aspey recommended that they serve their time in Coconino County Jail in Flagstaff, at their request. The community service must be done at a minimum pace of 10 hours per month." I heard they both were sentenced to 200 Hours so I think that 24 hours a month should be the minimum. They were old enough to know better. It's not like we were talking about a couple of 10 year olds. -
Load Range E?

Not to hijack the thread but lots of people have had problems with the Pronghorns wearing out and stiching comming apart. I bought a pair two years ago and have not had that problem. They are plenty light and give good support (I'm 5'10~180) and they broke in the first 100 feet I wore them.

That really stinks.

Preparation for upcoming hunts what Diet and conditioning.
PRDATR replied to swaro06's topic in The Campfire
I just want to add that before you guys start an exercise program go see your Doc and get a checkup. I have a habit of pushing myself to the extreme sometimes to get to the top of the hill in one last burst. I like the feeling of accomplishment and never though too much about my heart pounding away. Last year I noticed when I look through my big binos on the tripod that I my pulse was moving my eyes ever so slightly. Well over the fourth I did a Nuclear Stress Test and after about 8 minutes the nurse stopped it because my Blood Pressure soared to over 230 so now I am taking medicine for it. I wonder how many times in the last year or so it went higher than that when I was really pushing it? -
I had to go to Tucson last week and saw lots of birds flying across the freeway by the Marana Airport. I was thinking about going there during the second weeek as I took the day off for my birthday.
